NAS Integration
Space Collaborative Decision Making Program (SpCDM)
FAA’s Air Traffic Organization has decades of experience collaborating with key stakeholders in order to utilize the National Airspace System (NAS) for both safety and efficiency.
In 2021, the Chief Operating Officer approved the startup of the Space Collaborative Decision Making Program (SpCDM) to specifically enhance the collaboration of ATO Space Ops and the Space launch and reentry operators on space operational practices. As there is an increase of particularly commercial operators and missions overall, this program is vital to collaborating on a growing transportation sector in the United States.
This site is designed for participants in SpCDM as well as the ATO Space Operations Committee (SpOC).
